I decided to see how good I still was so I played a botmatch with 4 bots set at adept on Deck 16. Note, the bot who won was Logue who is arguably the best bot there is. Final score was 30 to 26 though he was at 28 while I was at 19 at one point before I hit a luckt streak. I suck now! I used to win on Masterful a while back

Kool , which game ut99 or ut2k4? which mutator's (weapons) did you use?

Iron Chef

I was playing UT99. No mutators or mods. Just straight DeathMatch with the default weapons. I'm about to go give it another shot now since I see some interest on your part! I did this because I have been playing on HOH set up as a instagib match so I can play with HippieKat1967. He is a Quake 2 baby who has lived and died by a quake weapon called the "Railgun". It is the equivalent to UT's Shock Rifle with the instagib mod which as you know means 1 hit = 1 frag. Well, last night, i went to a online game with him to a server that actually was a 1 on 1 server but when you connected, it put you in a fight queue meaning you were waiting to get to fight. While you waited, you could click to change views between the two people who were currently fighting. These guys ruled! All of them did. I was sure that aim bots were being used as one guy always seem to hit the other on every third shot. That was soon proven false as he took me out when my turn came up by a score of 10 - 0. To watch this type of gameplay was amazing as I've seen great players in UT but everyone of these Quake guys were Godlike. HippieKat1967 played the same guy I lost to and lost also but at a respectable score of 10 - 7. Strange that in UT instagib, HippieKat1967 and I are about equal with him winning just over 1/2 the time. He hasn't played UT in about 5 years except for the new UT2004 release or Quakes Final Killer as I like to call it. Hehehehe. Later! Let me know how you did against the 4 bots, on Deck 16, no mods, set at adept, regular weapons, weapons stay at off. Be warned too that Grunt is awesome at Instagib as he spanked HK and I soundly most of last night.

Ok, I just sat down and prayed, then concentrated and went back in for more. I won this time 30-14. Note that I had originally had random bots selected which is how Logue got in I guess. This time Logue wasn't there as I turned this feature off. At least 6 of my frags were at the hands of my trusty redeemer which the bots will never use unless the get pushed into the transporter by accident from splatter damage or weapon fire like the shock rifle. Let me know how it goes for you. I'm switching back up to masterful now. For the record, I never have beaten this game. I never made it all the way through the deathmatch tier for that matter! LOL. How have ya'll done? Maybe it could be a side project between a few of us to beat the game. Maybe we can help each other out? Maybe I'm a nerd but let me know what you think. Not about the nerd part though since I already know. LOL. Later!

Does all of this mean that we can look forward to the return of cg3 someday? :o

I'm in. I have never beaten the whole deathmatch tier either. what difficulty level do you want to beat it on? I just got spanked on oblivian by blake on godlike...lol...given I wasn't warmed up....but he is deadly with that rocket launcher. :-)

Reg Ut i can't play that well If I have both hands guns :D I do fine & flak gun I do fine but i get good on UT 2k4.Ut redeemer I do better.That way i Like it so much. :D

Actually I am Hippiekat[AI] which stands for the clan Im in called Assassins Inc. http://www.clan-ai.net/ Anyway...what Herm refers to is my Yahoo name and is also the year i was born. I know.....Too much information!!!!

dang ! it's not easy at all :x I got spanked bad for a bit :oops: and finally I just got ill and went for the sniper rifle and started collecting some head shots :twisted: still lost by 5 frags :evil:



DOA @ Deck 16 Chef

may try this tonight. Deck 16 with 4 adept bots and weapon stay off. this sounds more like a hunting game than a messy fast game I'm used to. I usually practice on Morbias with about 8 experienced bots and weapon stay on. that way I get to practice my aim when a bot spawns in the tunnel at the top of the lifts. winning the same setup with godlike bots isn't uncommon here. but then again weapon stay is on so my rocket launcher is almost always loaded. when online, I only play redeemer arena and domination nowadays.

used the railgun in the days of Q3Test, never liked it. seems to be worse than the shock primary fire.

ok. played 3 games on Deck 16 last night, one at adept, one at godlike, and one at inhuman. I won at adept by about 15 frags, lost at godlike by about 15 frags and lost at inhuman by 2 frags. it is definitely winable at the inhuman level. I don't think I have a chance at godlike. I could have won at inhuman by about 5 but could not find a bot to kill near the end. at godlike a bot can pop you with a sniper rifle from across the map and you're toast before you even notice they're there.
